Tacrolimus (TAC) is an immunosuppressant widely utilized in organ transplantation. One of its primary adverse effects is glucose metabolism disorder, which significantly increases the risk of diabetes. Investigating the molecular mechanisms underlying TAC-induced diabetes is essential for developing effective prevention and treatment strategies for these adverse effects.

Islet transplantation (IT) is a successful natural cell therapy. But the benefits are known mostly to individuals with severe type 1 diabetes who undergo IT and the health care professionals that work to make the therapy available, reproducible, and safe. Data linking IT to overall survival in T1D might alter this situation and frame the therapy in a more positive light.

Pancreatic islet transplantation is a crucial treatment for managing type 1 diabetes (T1D) in clinical settings. However, the limited availability of human cadaveric islet donors and the need for ongoing administration of immunosuppressive agents post-transplantation hinder the widespread use of this treatment. Stem cell-derived islet organoids have emerged as an effective alternative to primary human islets.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a chronic disease characterized by long-term insulin resistance (IR) and pancreatic β-cell dysfunction. Conventional T2D medication ignores pancreatic β-cell damage. In this study, we designed an oral glucose-responsive nanoparticle for pancreatic β-cell regeneration and treatment of T2D.
